About the Item
"Murmurs in the Midsummer Shade" unfolds as a lush, atmospheric painting that blurs the boundary between organic growth and dreamlike presence. Earthy yellows and mossy greens form a warm, enveloping ground, punctuated by soft reds that pulse like quiet signals within the landscape. Translucent white forms drift and cluster across the surface, suggesting fleeting figures, leaves, or whispered thoughts caught mid-transformation. Drips and stains move downward, reinforcing a sense of gravity, time, and impermanence. The composition feels alive with subtle motion, as if the scene is breathing and slowly changing before the viewer’s eyes. Hovering between abstraction and figuration, "Murmurs in the Midsummer Shade" invites contemplation, drawing the viewer into a hushed, otherworldly space shaped by memory, sensation, and quiet mystery.

Born in Freeport, Illinois in 1966, Daniel Ketelhut is an emerging painter who currently resides in San Diego, California. Ketelhut graduated in 1990 from San Diego State University with a BA in Art, emphasis in studio art, and was recognized with distinction in his major. The otherworldly subject matter of his imaginative, colorful paintings is largely self-generated. Depicting strange, biomorphic creatures and fantastic realms, it often explores the themes of mystery and transcendence. In addition to his formal education, Ketelhut is self-taught, which he considers to be just as important. His work has been seen in several solo exhibitions as well as numerous group shows both locally and nationally. His work is included in both national and international private collections. “I draw and paint to lift the veils of everyday and catch glimpses of a world which seems strange and unfamiliar, but is reflective of what is in many ways a more substantial reality – the inner, subconscious world available to all of us.” – Ketelhut
